We carry out cleaning and maintenance in Brighouse and across the HD6 area. Most roof lantern leaks start as small, preventable problems: blocked eaves, a lifted capping, a tired seal.
What you might be seeing
- Dirty glass or green algae on the frame
- Leaves or moss at the eaves
- The lantern is under trees
Why it happens
Debris
Leaves and moss block drainage.
Unnoticed wear
Nobody looks at the roof until it leaks.
About Brighouse and the HD6 area
Damp, mild winters keep moss and algae growing on flat roofs and lantern frames, which holds water against seals and blocks weep slots. Regular clearing makes a real difference in wetter areas.
Urban grime and traffic film dull glass and frames quickly; a clean and seal check makes a tired lantern look and perform much better.
From Leeds to Brighouse is roughly 12 miles — all part of the West Yorkshire area we cover.

What should you expect to pay in Brighouse?
Guide price for cleaning and maintenance: £95–£245 ex VAT (£114–£294 inc VAT), per visit. Towers or scaffold, where needed, are priced into the quote. Your fixed price is confirmed in writing before any work starts.
Do you need permission in England?
Most lantern repairs in England need no approval at all. Where a job turns into a replacement, the Building Regulations 2010 apply and we confirm how the work will be signed off before we start. Listed buildings need listed building consent from the local council for alterations, and conservation areas can have extra controls; like-for-like repairs are treated differently from changes, so check with the council's conservation officer first.
